Brief description:
New York Times bestselling co-author of Soul Surfer, SHERYL BERK is the founding editor in chief of Life & Style Weekly as well as a contributor to InStyle, Martha Stewart, and other publications.
Her daughter, CARRIE, a cupcake connoisseur, cooked up the idea for the Cupcake Club series in second grade. Together, they have invented dozens of crazy cupcake recipes in their NYC kitchen (can you say Purple Velvet?) and have the frosting stains on the ceiling to prove it. Carrie maintains her own cupcake blog, featuring reviews, photos and recipes of her culinary adventures.
Review Quotes: "This was a fun book that combined two things that most kids love, cupcakes and friends. The book was light and fun, but also brought in a great story line that any child will enjoy. . .The book had some great messages about friendship that I liked and as a parent that I was happy to share with my own girls!" -- Dad of Divas
